2 OUTFITS: SUSHI DATE & EXPLORING STREET ART IN MOSTAR CITY

EN Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! Today I'll show you two outfits I wore this March. One was more dressed up, the other more casual. The first outfit I wore for a sushi date with my husband in taboo bar (not sponsored) and the second for a stroll exploring street art in Mostar city. I shopped my closet for both of these outfits. Scroll down to see more. 

HR Pozdrav dragi čitatelji i blogeri! Danas ću vam pokazati dvije odjevne kombinacije koje sam nosila ovog ožujka. Jedna je dotjeranija, drugi ležernija. Prvo ruho nosila sam za sushi spoj sa suprugom, a drugo za šetnju gradom Mostarom i istraživanje ulične umjetnosti. Za obje kombinacije nosila sam odjevne predmete koje već dugo vremena imam u ormaru. Nastavite čitati kako biste više vidjeli.

SUSHI DATE STYLING- CHERRY PRINT DRESS PAIRED WITH AN OLIVE BLAZER

I paired my cherry print dress (five ways to style it here) with stiletto heels (last worn here) and an olive blazer (worn here). It was a warm day, but I still layered two types of tights, wearing the burgundy ones under the leopard fishnets. I like wearing these two pairs together (see here for another example).  

HR Svoju haljinu s uzorkom trešnje (pet načina kako je nositi, poveznica u tekstu na engleskom) nosila sam sa štiklama (poveznica gore) i blazerom maslinaste boje (poveznica gore). Bio je topao dan, ali svejedno sam nosila dvije vrste hulahopki, tamnocrvene ispod leopardovih mrežnih. Volim nositi ova dva para zajedno (poveznica gore).

I felt quite stylish wearing this outfit. I will admit that these stilettoes aren't the most comfortable shoe option out there, but they are alright when it comes to walking. I find walking in them easier then  standing in them. I don't find walking in stilettoes difficult as such, but I prefer a more sturdy heel most of the time. Thick heels, wedges and platforms are my typical choices.. Stilettoes look elegant, but they are anything but practical, especially if you live somewhere where pavements leave much to be desired. I'm a walker and I've never been one of those people who take the car everywhere. Therefore, I rarely invest in stilettoes. I do have a lot of heeled shoes, boots, sandals and mules but the heel is always a thick one. 

HR Osjećala sam se prilično elegantno noseći ovu kombinaciju. Priznat ću da ove cipele s viskokim petom nisu najudobnija opcija, ali u redu su kada je u pitanju hodanje. Zapravo je hodanje u njima lakše nego stajanje. Nije mi teško hodanje u štiklama kao takvo, ali većinu vremena preferiram čvršću petu. Debele potpetice, puna peta i platforme moj su tipični izbor. Cipele s tankom potpeticom izgledaju elegantno, ali sve su samo ne praktične, pogotovo ako živite negdje gdje pločnici nisu u dobrom stanju. Ja sam šetačica i nikada nisam bila od onih ljudi koji svugdje idu autom. Stoga rijetko ulažem u ovakve cipele. Imam puno cipela na petu, čizama, sandala, ali peta na njima je uvijek debela.

A COMFY OUTFIT FOR EXPLORING STREET STYLE ART IN MOSTAR  CITY 

The outfit I wore to explore street art I'm sharing is a comfortable one. Once again, I shopped my closet and I will link up the items to prove it. I wore my trusted caramel heeled boots (plus 30 ways to wear them HERE), a pair of jeans (here), a beige coat (here) and a crossover bag (here).

One of the things I love about Mostar is street art. There is a street art festival held annually, so there are always new murals to admire. Today I will show you three gorgeous murals painted on buildings. Moreover, you can see my previous posts about street art in Mostar here,  here , here , here and here. 

HR Odjevna kombinacija koju sam nosila za istraživanje ulične umjetnosti je udobna. Još jednom sam nosila odjevne komade koje imam i dodati ću poveznice kako bi to dokazala. Nosila sam svoje udobne karamel čizme, par traperica, bež kaput i torbu (poveznice kako sam ih prije nosila možete pronaći u engleskom dijelu teksta).

 Jedna od stvari koje volim o Mostaru je ulična umjetnost. Svake godine se održava festival ulične umjetnosti, tako da uvijek ima novih murala kojima se možemo diviti. Danas ću vam pokazati tri prekrasna murala naslikana na zgradama. Osim toga, možete vidjeti i moje prijašnje objave o uličnoj umjetnosti u Mostaru  u engleskom dijelu teksta (poveznice su u zagradama). 

Thank you for reading and visiting. Have a lovely day ahead!

    Wow, those murals are amazing! Thank you for sharing them, Ivana! I love your layered tights in the first outfit - i did that ages ago in the early days of my blog, but I should really think about doing it again these days, as it looks so good. I can't do stilettoes anymore, sadly - I am worried that I'll get a stress fracture on the top of my feet. I love to walk as well, so I've collected a bunch of fun flat/low-heeled shoes/boots for that purpose. Whenever you see me in heels in an outfit, I'm carrying my shoes in a separate bag and wearing comfy shoes for walking!

    Those murals are incredible, I'd love to see those in real life!
    Your dress looks lovely and I hope you enjoyed your trip out.
    I've never been a fan of stilettoes, I favour chunky footwear with laces or buckles that I can walk in as I don't drive. xxx

      Stilettoes are probably the least practical shoe option out there.

    Love both your outfits. Like you, I find it easier to walk in high heels than stand in them. Also, a block heel is much better than stilettos too, so most of my shoes/boots have thicker heels too.

      yes, a thicker heel is always a better option.

    Those murals are stunning. What a wonderful way to bring colour to the city's streets. Your very outfit is very chic and perfect for a sushi date with your hubby. I haven't worn stilettos since my early twenties - I think - and lately I have to be very selective with the height of my footwear. I can still do wedges or chunky heels, as long as they are not too high. The joys of getting older :-( xxx

    Hi Ivana,
    I am happy to know that you could have a normal life with this pandemic, here the restaurants are still closed !! Anyway, I couldn’t eat sushi either, my health problem doesn’t allow it! I loved the murals, the buildings are much more beautiful! As for your looks, you look wonderful and very elegant in your first look and very comfortable in the second!
    Happy Easter!

      Thank you Marisa. In Bosnia and Herzegovina there are almost no measures but also no vaccines. The murals are truly lovely, one day I'll try to show them all.

    I adore you Ivana. I've layered tights in the past and think it's a great way for adding color under fishnets along with staying warm!!
    What a fun exploring trip!! I'm so glad you got out and about.

    Great outfits. I love going for Sushi and so much choice in Scotland. I miss that as we have been in lockdown since 26th Dec. We are hoping places will be open at the end of April!

THE ISLAND OF THE MISSING TREES BY ELIF SHAFAK (BOOK REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATION)

Image
Today I shall review The Island of Missing Trees by Elif Shafak. I was actually gifted this book. What a wonderful present it proved to be! Published in 2021, this postmodern  novel  follows two  story lines and uses framed narration.  The Island of Missing Trees  tells the life story of a Greek Turkish couple and their adolescent daughter.  This novel examines and explores a number of topics such as identity, migration, immigrant life, war trauma, memory, love and family. It's an ambitious novel that examines serious topics with due respect and sensitivity . I read it months ago, but I remember it vividly. Honestly, I cried a lot while reading this novel. It really moved me greatly. In fact, that is probably why it took me this long to finish this book review. I needed to emotionally process the story.   The Island of Missing Trees is   set in London and Cyprus. The narration isn't chronological .  The story jumps back and forth, following ...

VISIT SINJ (CROATIA) WITH ME! EXPLORE THE DALMATIAN HIGHLANDS!

Image
Hello readers and fellow bloggers! Regular readers of my blog will know that I'm Dalmatian and ' parce mihi Domine,' (as St. Jerome's supposedly used to pray). Dalmatia is one of four historical Croatian regions. When we're talking about coastal regions in Croatia, there are only two: Istria and Dalmatia. Occupying the majority of Croatian seaside, Dalmatia is extremely popular with tourists. Dalmatian coast is quite long, including hundreds of islands, and running from Zadar in the north do Dubrovnik to the south.  However, there's more to Dalmatia than its seaside and islands.  I'm from the seaside myself, a proper sea child and all,  but I love the Dalmatian Highlands. Rich in history and culture, Dalmatia Highlands are unique in many ways. From culinary delicacies to fascinating traditions, from untouched nature to picturesque towns and villages, you'll find much to admire here. Have I blogged about it before? I certainly did. I blogged about the Gr...

WHAT I WORE IN MOSTAR FOR WONDERFULLY WARM AND SUNNY AUTUMN DAYS

Image
 Hello readers and fellow bloggers! Happy Sunday! In this post, I'll share three warm Autumn outfits I wore for strolling around Mostar city. Today is quite cold and cloudy for our Mediterranean standards, so the plan is to stay in and catch up with blogging. I've had a pretty eventful weekend so far. Weekend sometimes seem to just fly by, don't they? We often try to make up for the things we didn't do during the week, especially us ladies. We try to fit in all in- to clean the house, do chores and that sort of things. Sometimes weekends can even be tiring. There are conferences and meetings to attend. Learning how to shut down and rest properly can be a challenge. Life gets busy, and sometimes the older we get, the more busy it becomes. That's why I'm so grateful for these little outings I do, being a tourist in my own city and country- that sort of thing. I sometimes feel like I mastered sustainable and local travel . The challenge is just finding the time to ...

BURGUNDY AND YELLOW OUTFIT IN SPLIT CITY

Image
 Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! In this post, I'll show you an autumn outfit I wore for a seaside stroll with my family in Split city, Croatia. This outfit is another example of me shopping my closet, so you can expect the sustainable fashion files to kick in any minute. This was a very comfortable outfit to wear that also felt very energizing. Probably it was due to colour therapy and all that. Wearing colours often makes me feel better. Mustard yellow and burgundy are the main colours in this look, and I do love these colours together. I dressed in layers, for it was quite windy and fresh despite the warm sun.  As regular readers of my blog know, Split is my home city, and you can find me there very often. In fact, you could say that I live between Split and Mostar. I love Mostar, but I do miss the sea. Is there anything better than seaside in Autumn and Winter? I always love being near the sea, but during the Autumn and Winter when there are hardly any people aroun...

As I believe the best way to learn is through example, so I'll show you multiple ways how to style an olive green blazer. On this little digital place to call my own, I love to show you how you can be more sustainable by shopping your closet. The more you love items in your closet and the better care you take of your clothes, you easier you'll find it to shop your closet. So, that's something to keep in mind! Besides linking up outfits with this blazer, I'll link up multiple ways to wear other items in my closet. As always, there will be fun collages to help you see the vision- how chic and fun restyling items can be! Olive green can be somewhat of an underrated colour, even if it is trending at the moment.

FORGIVENESS DAY BY URSULA K. LE GUIN (BOOK REVIEW AND AN AUTUMN STYLING)

Image
Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! How are you today? I'm back with another Ursula K. Le Guin book review. In this post, I'll review " Forgiveness Day" , a science fiction novella that is a part of the Hainish Circle. Published in 1995, "Forgiveness Day " won multiple awards. This novella is often published together with her other novellas from the Hainish Circle, and it can be find in various editions of Four Ways to Forgiveness and Five Ways to Forgiveness.   Thematically, this novella is a part of five stories featuring two Hainish planets, but it can definitely be read on its own. I think it functions well as a stand alone novella. I listened to it in audio form, and I didn't have any problems following the story.  The world building is simple and effective. The author fills us in about the history of the two planets as the story enfolds. For such a short work of prose, this novella is really impressive in that it manages to explore the theme o...
